Captain Blade - record breaker

SpongeBob SquarePants led a team of ten mascots from Football League clubs, including our very own Captain Blade, to a new Guinness World Records title this week!

The Guinness World Record was attempted as part of filming for Nick Kicks, Nickelodeon's new family football show covering The Football League.

The new Nick Kicks show premieres at 8am on Saturday 6th February on Nicktoons. It will be broadcast every Saturday morning for the rest of this season until after the Play-Off Finals, before returning for the entirety of Season's 2016/17 and 2017/18.

Setting the Guinness World Records title for 'the highest number of football penalty kicks scored by a team of mascots in one minute' with 16 shots scored, SpongeBob was joined by Captain Blade, Billy the Badger (Fulham), Digger the Dog (Dagenham & Redbridge), Happy Harry (Luton Town), Haydon the Womble (AFC Wimbledon), Nelson the Dog (Portsmouth), Rammie (Derby County), Robyn the Robin (Charlton Athletic) and Wolfie & Wendy (Wolverhampton Wanderers).

Presented by Rachel Stringer and Roman Kemp, Nick Kicks is a brand new live-action football programme covering all 72 clubs of The Football League. The series features highlights across each week's Football League matches, as well as the more humorous moments from the week and a look ahead to upcoming games.

Nick Kicks also takes viewers behind the scenes of The Football League with exclusive visits to local clubs that see managers and players taking part in a range of fun and entertaining features! SpongeBob SquarePants himself will feature in the series as he takes on various club mascots in weekly challenges.

The series is produced by Nickelodeon UK and launches on Saturday 6th February at 8am on Nicktoons.
